12 December 2023, 15:04 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

Multi-GRAMMY award winning bassist and singer Thundercat has announced a special deluxe edition of his album, Apocalypse, to celebrate ten years since its original release in 2013.

The new edition contains two previously unreleased tracks, "Before I loved myself 'I' pooped my ankles (true)" recorded with Austin Peralta and Taylor Graves, and "Paris" (with Mono/Poly). The deluxe LP also features special rainbow holographic artwork housed inside a transparent PVC outer slipcase complete with “x-ray” holographic skull print.

Produced alongside Flying Lotus, the album features hits such as "Heartbreaks + Setbacks", "Lotus and the Jondy", "Tron Song" and the all-out cosmic funk bullet "Oh Sheit, It’s X".

2023 has been a whirlwind year for Thundercat. Touring highlights included Glastonbury, two sold out shows at Sydney Opera House, more stadium gigs with rock legends Red Hot Chili Peppers and his own North American headline run featuring a show at the iconic Red Rocks amphitheater and a superlative hometown gig at The Greek Theatre in LA with special guests Donald Glover/Childish Gambino, Steve Lacy, Tame Impala's Kevin Parker, Suicidal Tendencies and more.

Thundercat will be back on tour in Europe in Spring 2024. The UK leg takes in Glasgow, Dublin, Manchester, Newcastle, Bristol, Wolverhampton and culminates with a special four-night residency at KOKO in London from 3-6 April.

The special deluxe edition of his album, Apocalypse, will be released on 1 March via Brainfeeder.
